In this paper, the effects of alternating magnetic field (AMF) on the ice nucleation temperature of grape were investigated, and the AMF continued treatment and AMF intermittent treatment (20 Gs, 60 Hz) assisted near-freezing temperature (AMCT/AMIT-NFT) were used to store grapes at (−2.5 ± 0.2)°C. Compared with the untreated group, AMF decreased the ice nucleation temperature of grape by 1°C. Meanwhile, Results demonstrated that AMCT/AMIT-NFT storage improved sensory properties and antioxidant capacity of grapes, with the overall effect of AMIT treatment being the most favorable. After 9 days of storage, the color difference and polyphenol oxidase (PPO) activity of AMIT treatment were reduced by 17% and 12%, respectively, compared with the untreated group, and it effectively slowed down malonaldehyde (MDA) accumulation. These conclusions show that AMCT/AMIT-NFT storage is an effective tool for prolonging the shelf life of grapes.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":100784,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Future Foods","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":5.2,"publicationDate":"2024-07-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2772566924000211/pdfft?md5=e1faae0bc738925918a11dffec4a5bf5&pid=1-s2.0-S2772566924000211-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141629920","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

According to the results, CFPS completely prevented fruit decay in the 90 days storage and the following shelf period without causing fruit chilling injury. In comparison, the decay rate of fruit stored at 10°C increased with the elongation of storage time, and reach to 6.67% after 90 days storage, then further increased to 33.33% after transferring to the shelf.
